My conf for procmail looks now like:

Nothing changed, still same problem :(
Are you delivering to the /var/mail directory or to a file in the
/var/mail/directory?
With that $DEFAULT, it is likely you are delivering to a directory. To
deliver mbox, you need to deliver to a file. But please check the
documentation on this:
man procmailrc
"If it is a (possibly yet nonexistent) filename, the mail will be appended
to it. If it is a directory, the mail will be delivered to a newly
created, guaranteed to be unique file named $MSGPREFIX* in the specified
directory."
The / business is to do with MH style folders I think.
